Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 717 Iron Fist.

Shi Lang's question directly questioned the motive of Third Young Master Zhu. Yang Tie was stunned by the presence of mind displayed by Shi Lang, which was too overwhelming. 

The Third Young Master Zhu was stunned and speechless. He did not know how this guy turned the tables on him. This was the first time Zhu Lin had met a match in a battle of words. He wrecked his brain to respond, but he could not come up with any suitable one. 

If he tried to move ahead, the situation would look like he was questioning the dignity of the Heavenly Dragon Pavillion. In the Forger City, his family may appear to be the overlord, but the Dragon Pavillion rules over the overlords. They had the best forgers in the city and were the highest taxpayers. 

In the past, there was an incident when an opposing force offended a Master Forger of the Dragon Pavillion—the latter directly closed shop and left the Forger City. The impact was so huge that the City Lord was forced to visit the Dragon Sovereign and beg him to have his people return. 

The opposing force was brought down to their knees and were forced out of the Forger City. This story was an example to follow. The Zhu Family was not over the City Lord Palace. They were just the people appointed by the City Lord Palace to share the load of the City Lord's palace.

Suppose the news leaked that the Zhu family had offended the Heavenly Dragon Pavillion. The impact will shake the foundation of the Zhu Family. Zhu Lin was arrogant and ensured never to suffer any losses. At this moment, Shi Lang had been placed in the position he hated the most. He would have to choose between the life and trust of his subordinate or the foundation of the Family. 

If Zhu Lin surrendered his subordinate's life, it would cause unrest and mistrust among the rest of the people under his wing. As for avoiding this issue and relying on family, the repercussions were obvious. 

He looked at Zhu Xiameng and then at Shi Lang, "What you say is a bit too exaggerating, Young Master Ace. How can the Zhu family bear any disrespect to the people who fight on the front for our safety? I am in the wrong for being unable to convey my meaning. I apologize to you."

Many people gathered in the area. After all, this was a big issue. The heavenly dragon pavilion was confronting the Zhu family. They all wanted to get a piece of drama for themselves. So, when the Prideful Third Young Master of the Zhu Family apologized, the crowd gasped. 

Even Yang Tie opened his mouth wide in shock. Bo Qingtan used his spiritual energy to close it. He said, 'Lord Yang, please calm down. You will know in the coming days that this Young Master of yours is no ordinary person.' 

Yang Tie glanced at him and nodded. On the other side, Zhu Lin continued, "So, Young Master Ace, as an apology from my side, I seek your advice on handling this issue." 

Shi Lang shook his head with a humble smile, "Young Master Zhu, you embarrass me. The city is your home, and you know better than me about how to govern and correct the issues you have. However, if you still wish to ask for my opinion, I suggest the guards be equipped with a demon detection stone. It will prevent the guards from offending anyone in the future." 

The suggestion was shockingly humble. The people were in awe. Shi Lang was the Young Master of the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion, and he let go of Zhu Xiameng with just an arm. He even told the Zhu Family about the demon detection stone that would allow them to evade such conflicts in the future. 

One person in the crowd said, "This guy deserves to be the Young Master of the Heavenly Dragon Pavillion. He is so generous, letting this scumbag Zhu Xiameng with just an arm and even helping the Zhu family improve their impression of the city folk. This is true wisdom." 

It was difficult to determine who among the crowd started this, but just like a stone in the lake, ripples appeared, and the rest of the people began to express their agreement and good opinion of Shi Lang's action. 

Yang Tie nodded and said, "If someone else was in place of Young Master Ace, Head Guard Zhu Xiameng would have been directly beheaded, and the two groups would have become enemies. However, not only did Young Master Ace help the Zhu family rectify the crooks in their house, but he even suggested how to improve their impression. 

Third Young Master Zhu, what is your opinion on this matter? You have also accused the Seniors of the Heavenly Dragon Pavillion of some unknown mistakes. What do you think? Our Young Master forsook the life of Head Guard Zhu. Why don't you let go of this matter and apologize to our seniors. Both parties will go their separate ways in harmony." 

Yun Xue was watching all this from the side with Bo Qingtan. They were both surprised to see that this refined gentleman, Lord Yang, could kick the enemy when he was down. 

Zhu Lin sharply moved his gaze from Shi Lang to Yang Tie and remarked with a smile, "I beg your pardon, Head Steward Yang. I did not see you there." 

Yang Tie knew that Zhu Lin was mocking him for being a steward. However, he did not care. He bowed and said, "Third Young Master Zhu, it is alright, you do not have to mind me. I will be happy to convey the details of the day to my Master, as long as you address them." 

His words were a silent threat. This issue was going to be conveyed to Master of the pavilion, Tian Long. If the young leader of the Zhu Family did not react appropriately, then he will be facing Soveriegn Heavenly Dragon and Zither Soul. 

Yang Tie and Shi Lang were ready to bring down the Iron Fist upon the Zhu family, and they were not bluffing. Zhu Lin's face scrunched up at this situation, he already lost the trust of his subordinates earlier, and would now have to work again, to make things worse, even his dignity was about to be robbed away.
